Hello ! I have been trying to find a way of getting enttec run in standalone. I cant get pro manager or q light to have access to enttec at the same time . How do i then record the show if i dont have access to record the show from q light ? What is the solution if there is one ? Please if someone have the answer within the hour :D

You need to use another DMX consolle connected in DMX IN for recording in pro manager.

It's not possible to rec directly from Qlc+

I have been having this same issue and in the end contacted Enttec support. It can be done :)

The trick is to switch to using Art-Net as the output and then setup DMX Pro Manager to receive Art-Net. I found that initially I needed to get the connection working using the DMX Send tab then I was able to move to the standalone page and initiate recording the 'show' for standalone use.
Note that during recording the lights will not reflect the instructions sent the only indication the recording is succeeding is the frame count. I have tried a couple of short recordings and then tried the standalone mode both worked as expected.
Hope this helps others.

perfect, it has all worked perfectly with this trick!

The question is:
Do I need to have the computer connected? Does the interface work alone? and turns on automatically?
Is there a way to see what you record?

Thank you!
